Ghost in the Shell (1995)

When the Wachowskis were pitching The Matrix to their producers, they showed them this movie and said: "We wanna do that for real." The film defined a visual identity for cyberpunk media that continues to influence creators like James Cameron and Steven Spielberg. Join us for Mamoru Oshii's cyber-thriller masterpiece on Wednesday, September 23 at 6:00 PM at the historic Big Roxie. This is a rare chance to see the classic cell-animation which was restored last year for its 30th anniversary. The film is 1 hour and 23 minutes long and will be shown in Japanese with English subtitles. Note that the Roxie starts its features more or less at the listed showtime! **Please buy your ticket online in advance** **[HERE](https://roxie.com/film/ghost-in-the-shell-30th-anniversary-remaster/)** * 5:30 PM: Meet outside for quick introductions and to grab good seats. * 6:00 PM: Movie starts. * 7:30 PM: Gather outside the theater lobby after the film. * 7:40 PM: Walk over to a nearby restaurant or bar for drinks, food, and movie discussion.

Volleyball. Training and Playing.

1001 Great Hwy, San Francisco. Stairwell #17 across from the Beach Chalet. 9:00 start time. Ocean Beach Volleyball Meetup is a training-and-play event for players who want to get better, not just jump straight into games. Everyone starts with three short phases of VBX Volleyball training before open play. VBX is a no-net training system that helps players improve faster by giving them more touches, more rallies, and more chances to read, move, pass, set, and attack in game-like situations. After the VBX warm-up and skill-building phases, players move onto the nets for open play. As the group keeps improving, we’ll also set up more courts geared toward doubles play for players who want a faster, more competitive challenge. All levels are welcome, but the goal is simple: train first, play better, and build a stronger Ocean Beach volleyball community. Let me know how I may help you! Come train, play, and grow with us. See you on the sand! Coach Dale VBX Volleyball Systems 😊🏐😎 Questions? Message me here.

Meet to draw each other in San Francisco!

Take a turn modeling (nude) then just draw for the rest of the session. Looking forward to seeing old and new friends! Optional $10 donation to cover studio rent is suggested but not required. We will supply chairs but bring your own drawing materials, such as pencil, paper, and drawing board if you have one. (No oil paints, solvents, or fixative inside the building.) Open to all levels of experience.

Volleyball. Training and Playing

Whether you’re starting out or looking for a place to play, you’ve landed in the right place.
You’re going to meet people who are going to help you get better as well as those who will become long time playing buddies. 



You’ll have an opportunity to learn how to get better the fastest way possible - but you’ll have to ask personally - everyone’s different. 😊
Join us whether it’s training, tournaments, or open play! 



You may come regularly or every now and then. Play for hours or a short while. You will find volleyball joy that will brighten your weekend or enough to change your life! 



Please RSVP to let me know you’re coming BUT note that most players don’t RSVP. There will be 20-30+ players and most of them come around 10:30. I’m at the beach early to help players improve in one or all of three areas - physical, technical, or mental. 



Bring what you would normally bring to the beach for a four hour stay. There is a bathroom across the street at the Beach Chalet which opens at 10:00. There are also bathrooms at the Beach Chalet sports field which is a six minute walk or at Safeway which is a five minute walk. 



Equipment and all fees associated with putting on this event including creating this MeetUp group is out of pocket. My intent is to make this event readily available and affordable. Donations are very much appreciated.
You may Venmo me @Dale Alvarez (smirking face emoji) 7330 or Zelle at jobealvarez@yahoo.com or 925-262-7330. Thanks so much! (I love your appreciative “thank-yous” but that doesn’t pay for the nets, balls, anchors, carabiners, gas, etc.) 🥰 



You’ll find that all you really need to start to enjoy beach volleyball is a ball and someone to play with (even though we have a bunch of other stuff and many like minded players.
I’m looking forward to contributing to your 3-4 hours of volleyball enjoyment!
